The lyrics are probably quite interesting if you speak Norwegian, written professionally by Birger and Kristin Sivertsen, but the music they're put to sounds like a cross between a heavenly lullaby and a soft Jethro Tull. The female vocals are strong but not gripping, and the occasional male vocals are really quite awful, mechanically distorted to completely spoil the otherwise tranquil and historical atmosphere. Only opener 'Nøkken' contains a truly memor...more |

Financed by the band's prize money from a Norwegian music festival the previous year, 'Troll' is a more polished and refined album than its predecessor, but also much, much duller. Trading in most of the heavy metal elements for an almost entirely folk sound, this is universally slow and often tedious folk metal lacking in the character and fun I usually associate with the genre. It's not lousy, it's just really, really boring.

Brilliant, fun, lively! 
You'll want more!!! Heart warming, easy to listen to, great lyrics, awe-inspiring Void of electric keyboards/synth tricks, maybe too warm for more modern listeners Almost everything Well...perhaps a little boring sometimes...very very occasionally though... average Tom Jones could be a lot better Brilliant musicianship, outstanding fiddle. Verges into country a bit.The Real Ramona - Throwing Muses
Influencial, pioneering, inspirational female led Indie rock A left of centre taste is required for this unique sound
The Battle - Russell Allen
Vocalists of some repute meet a multi-talented musician. The result is boring, weak and dishonest.
New Wave - Against Me
Highly energised, tightly packed slab of contemporary rock, with no indie influence in sight. Relies on older styles as much as it forsakes the modern.
My Heart Has A Wish That You Would Not Go - Aereogramme
Could conceivably work well to lull babies to sleep, unless they're especially picky. Utterly boring and frustratingly quiet.
Complications: Trilogy Of Intricacy - Age Of Silence
An interesting concept performed by veterans of the business. No one gets to strut their stuff apart from the vocalist, who harks back to the seventies.
Blacken The Angel - Agathodaimon
Nice background music, if you're partial to a bit of the old melodic symphonic extreme metal. Songs don't stand strong on their own, and the general musicianship is rather bland and dull.
Andrea - Andrea Bocelli
Classical - Opera - 2004
Agents Of Oblivion - Agents Of Oblivion
Dax Riggs perfects his psychedelic style, free from the constraints of Acid Bath. A little uneven, with the more upbeat stoner rock seeming more like filler amidst the gloom.
Alice In Chains - Alice in Chains
Original, deep, wonderfully-written You won't find singles here if you're looking for them
